I would inform them of our health issue with this. If they were snots about it I would deliberatly at some point soon sneeze right directly in their face. Oh so sorry couldn't help it you see i'm allergic to cats and sneezing comes with warning.

I've seen people with cat carriers a few times, the worse was the woman who put the carrier on her lap and opened the top, the cat of course wanted nothing more than to get out of the bag. So the cat got it's head out and the woman spent the entire time fighting to keep the cat in the bag.

So the woman is sitting there basically wrestling the cat who's trying to escape from the carrier and the flight attendant comes and tells here that she needs to close the bag and place it on the floor as it's unsafe to be wrestling with a cat and giving it a chance to escape. The woman obliges for a few minutes, but as soon as the attendant has been gone for a few minutes she again picks up the bag, opens it, and starts her wrestling match all over again.

This was a few rows ahead of me along the aisle so I wasn't right beside it, but yeah I'd have been even more annoyed if I had been.
